Abstract
A 68 year-old female was admitted to our hospital because of hematemesis and melena. Emergency endoscopic examination revealed an exposed vessel in the diverticulum of the second part of the duodenum. Endoscopic clipping of the vessel was performed, which caused localized peritonitis next day. There were 16 case-reports of endoscopic hemostasis using clip for hemorrhage from duodenal diverticulum in Japan, such a case accompanying localized peritonitis had not been reported.
